There is no official FAQ. And the unofficial FAQs are getting old. You can find my version of an FAQ from my tag. It has actual Q/A, from three stat-groups and the SPSS group. It has pointers to some other useful web-addresses. It refers to another FAQ that was constructed to tell people about the stat-related groups, and about posting. These days, you can search old posts at <groups.google>. And you can use Google to search the web. I find it easier to find stuff with Google, first, even when it points back to something I once saved. Once you find one POST related to your subject, you might extend your web search by looking at the name-tags of the people who wrote answers, and trying their home pages. Google also has an extended introduction to Usenet news groups, and 'netiquette' - the etiquette of how and what to post. - What might be useful, next, is advice (beyond what Google gives) on how to be smart and efficient in constructing Searches. -- Rich Ulrich, [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pitt.edu/~wpilib/index.html . . ================================================================= Instructions for joining and leaving this list, remarks about the problem of INAPPROPRIATE MESSAGES, and archives are available at: . http://jse.stat.ncsu.edu/ . =================================================================
